6 Do not force the tool - It will perform the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
intended
7 Use the right tool - Do not force small tools to do the job of a heavy duty tool
- Do not use tools for purposes not intended; for example do not use circular saws to cut tree
limbs or logs
8 Dress appropriately
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, which can be caught in moving parts
- Suitable safety footwear is recommended when working outdoors
- Wear protective covering to contain long hair
9 Use protective equipment
- Use safety glasses
- Use face or dust mask if working operations create dust
WARNING: Not using protective equipment or appropriate clothing can cause personal injury or
increase the severity of an injury.
10 Connect dust extraction equipment - If the tool is provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collecting equipment, ensure these are connected and properly used
11 Do not abuse the power cable - Never yank the power cable to disconnect it from the socket.
Keep the power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Damaged or entangled power cables
increase the risk of electric shock
12 Secure work - Where possible use clamps or a vice to hold the work. It is safer than using your
hand
13 Do not overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times
14 Maintain tools with care
- Keep cutting tools sharp and clean makes the tool easier to control and less likely to bind or
lock in the workpiece
- Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories
- Inspect tool power cables periodically and if damaged have them repaired by an authorized
service facility
- Inspect extension cables periodically and replace if damaged
- Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease
WARNING: Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
15 Disconnect tools - When not in use, before servicing and when changing accessories such as
blades, bits and cutters, disconnect tools from the power supply
WARNING: The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may
result in a risk of injury to persons.
16 Remove adjusting keys and wrenches - Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before switching it on
17 Avoid unintentional starting - Ensure switch is in "off' position when connecting to a mains
socket or inserting a battery pack, or when picking up or carrying the tool
WARNING: Unintended starting of a tool can cause major injuries.
18 Use outdoor extension leads - When the tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords
intended for outdoor use and so marked. Use of an extension cable suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock
19 Stay alert
- Watch what you are doing, use common sense and do not operate the tool when you are tired
- Do not use a power tool while you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication
WARNING: A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
20 Check damaged parts
- Before further use of tool, it should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function
- Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and
any other conditions that may affect its operation
- A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized
service centre unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual
- Have defective switches replaced by an authorized service centre
WARNING: Do not use the tool if the on/off switch does not turn it on and off. The switch must
be repaired before the tool is used.
21 Have your tool repaired by a qualified person - This electric tool complies with the relevant
safety rules. Repairs should only be carried out by qualified persons, otherwise this may result in
considerable danger to the user
WARNING: When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING: If the power cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an
authorised service centre.
22 Power tool mains plugs must match the mains socket - Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
sockets will reduce risk of electric shock
23 If operating a power tool outside use a residual current device (RCD) - Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock
NOTE: The term "residual current device (RCD)" may be replaced by the term "ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI)" or "earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)".
24 Use proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. Table A shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord.
WARNING: When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that this tool is ALWAYS
supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30mA or less.
WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point receptacle,
outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the
tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury
to the user, and damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a
voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated rubber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Grounding Instructions (FOR US ONLY – 120V~ 60Hz supply)
All grounded, cord-connected tools:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do
not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3 pole receptacles that
accept the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating
less than 150 volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. I
/A. The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. I/A. A temporary adapter,
which looks like the adapter illustrated in Fig. I/C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in Fig. I/B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter
should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. (This
adapter is not permitted in Canada) The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the
adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
Workcentre Safety
WARNING: If the workcentre is fitted with a router module, the following safety instructions
should be considered.
WARNING: This is a complex device that combines multiple tools into one workshop machine
system. It may only be used for the applications described in this manual. DO NOT attempt to mount
